Next episode: Enigma shower scene as he feels that it was his fault

its the best danganronpa-fan studio no one can tell me otherwise

Ironic that the three characters that discovered the body were also the three characters I suspected would end up being the first victim.

I feel robbed, the person who was the victim is one of the most useful people who can help them get out.

spoilers that scene in the bar was phenomenal guys well done

The cast: **Finds an oofed body, leading to a traumatising experience, along with screaming in pure fear** The credits: *RING AROUND THE ROSIE-*

This is probably the first Danganronpa franchise death that I did not see coming, what the fuck. Amazing.

Very specific spoilers ahead! The orchestration of that body discovery announcement is a gem. I have no idea if it was the intention, but the camera panning from person to person, without showing their faces, was almost like a fake-out on who actually died. The back of Anon's head made me think that he was lying face down; the camera panning to Rock's torso then to Cross's face, who is looking in Rock's direction, made me think that Rock died, then immediately his face is shown and I get faked out again. I think the only time the main games did something similar is with Angie's discovery in V3, with the camera panning to the effigies, then to her body. You guys own this one. I also like that the discovery music was a twisted and damned version of one of the daily life themes. I'm a sucker for small details like these, honestly. Some top-notch voice acting on this episode as well. Stand-outs are that entire sequence with the drinking game, as well as Yaxi specifically right before the BDA. That "...Oh God" was visceral. And now y'all are gonna blue-ball us for, what, 3 or so months. It's been a while since I've been hyped for something, so I think this is gonna be good.

With an episode name like "Hells Door opens" I'm sure that this will be a relaxing chill episode.

Can we get an F for the person who died, they didn’t deserve it also not saying who it is since like I don’t want to spoil it

SPOILERS 3:47 Oh god, she was found like her brother. The dramatic irony makes this SO much more tragic, round of applause for the writer

SPOILER! I think that one of the big twists of the series will be that they all had a part to play in starting the game. Corza designed it, given he is the Ultimate Game Designer. Scarlet designed the poison to be unique and complex, making it hard for herself to know its properties when she loses her memories. Rox maybe, as the Ultimate Journalist, made it known to the Ultimates to join the game? And also, her role may also be to be the one to start the killing game, by hanging herself. And other roles that may be revealed later on. Thank you for listening to my TED Talk.

I love how Pocket is like super sarcastic with Enigma when he said "no one's coming" and pocket said "what's that Enigma? Oh right... I can fucking see that!" I love him so much. Pocket best character I've seen

I love this series for how each character has something to love and hate about them! In my opinion sometimes the actual danganronpa games sometimes fail to do that and give a character a single gimmick which makes them 1 dimensional and often annoying after awhile but not here! Each character is treated with so much care!

I feel conflicted. On one hand, I had no idea who was going to die and that made me nervous throughout the whole episode. There were so many characters who potentially could have been the first victim and I think that’s very cool. On the other hand: I *really* liked the first victim and am absolutely devastated that they died.

Everyone’s talking about the first victim, but can we all appreciate how cute Drunk Rissi is

You can actually tell who’s going to die by the amount of different sprites they have, *spoilers* Rox was one of the characters with fewer sprites

WHEN I TELL YOU I SCREAMED-

Let me just say, thank you Shattered Hope Studios for making a good series with extremely well written and voiced characters. I’m honestly sad half of them are gonna die cause I like all the characters so much

⚠️Warning ⚠️ !!! Don’t look in this comment section if you didn’t watch the video yet! There might be many spoilers in the comment-section. This btw counts for every episode. Jus wanted to warn u again if u forgot :)

Man these episode titles get scarier each episode. I like almost every character so I don't want anyone to die.

We got to see Corza shirtless, I don’t care who dies anymore.

SPOILERS Bruh, when I saw Rox flirting with Enigma, I jokingly said "She's totally dying", but I didn't expect it to ACTUALLY HAPPEN. Regarding to who hit Enigma, at first I thought it was Anon because they usually never notice him, but now that Rox died, I have a feeling that she was the one who hit Enigma. I can't really say why, it's just my gut feeling. Probably because she's the last character we see before everyone left the dining hall. As for Rock, he's really sus. Can't really say he's the culprit, but I do think he'll play a major role. He's the only one who found Enigma. Why? Why was he there? He didn't go back? Did he lie about something? Perhaps he saw Rox hitting Enigma. Perhaps that's why he's shocked seeing her hanging dead. Idk man. And it's really weird that Anon and Cross are looking at him in the final scene. Man, I can't wait for the next batch.

I'm sure the culprit was ... - - - - Grisp. There couldn't be two "Blueberries".

Spoilers: I love how I was worried about the body announcement while live chat was talking about Corza’s laugh

Corza laughing at that stupid pun is so cute 🥰

I’ve got to say, you guys did an amazing job at building up tension for this BDA. In most fangans, I usually just get a little nervous, but the tension for this one just went through the roof for me. I was practically shaking from my cold sweat, and the absolute shock and adrenaline of seeing who died was the nail in the coffin for it. I can already tell this is gonna be my favourite fangan out there by a long shot!

Everyone's on edge wondering who will perish but I just want to know why Twin has PlayStation Plus subscription emblems in his hair.

Spoiler Alert There were so many death flags in this episode that it honestly kept me guessing right until the body discovery

Nice one, keeping the “Kill the character that has the best relationship with the mc” tradition continuing

(Some spoilers mentioned) I just found this project a day or two ago and didn't expect much from it at first, and I'm glad I was wrong. Usually, I anticipate poor writing and a cringey dynamic between a lot of characters when I check out a fanmade Danganronpa thing, but I binged this playlist and I have not been more invested in Dangan characters than with this cast. The voice work, art, and everything else is really well-made and it made me feel genuine glee, frustration, and sadness with a lot of these characters. Massive kudos to the whole team for this, this is EXCELLENT work on a fantastic project. To me, all these characters feel organic, and you do an amazing job of making us (or at least me) feel really invested in all of them. I look forward to seeing what this project has in store for the future, it's honestly astounding imo. I can't think of a particular Dangan moment that made me feel as happy as when Corza laughed at Rock's pun in the dining hall - seeing the typically stoic and calm character finally look like he's having a great time was just, well, perfect.

MAJOR SPOILERS So just from looking at the body discovery, I can assume whoever did it really didn't like Rox. She has bruises all over her, and there's a knocked over stool in the background. Also, both Cross and Anon are looking at Rock like they think he did it, so he's either a red herring or a red herring of a red herring. Anon and cross are very unlikely to be culprits seeing as they found her. Whoever is the culprit either has the strength to knock someone out or had a blunt force object when Enigma was thwacked. This makes Grisp, Yaxi and Pocket hella suspicious. Also, Rox was killed most likely via hanging, which is how her brother died, so it's possible the culprit knew. As far as we are aware, only Enigma knew, but we aren't sure.

Corza in the thumbnail after what happens in the last ep Me: I don't like where this is going

Spoilers. When Enigma said to Rox that she would be seeing her brother soon, well... he was right.

The fact that Seth does both the voices for Rule and Hibiki from Brave DR is crazy because they are two polar opposites lmao, that's some good range :)

On a side note, the Yaxi and Moraiteru stuff this episode was SUPER interesting. It really started making me look at both characters differently which is awesome. Well done!

SPOILER ALERT: As soon as Enigma said, "We'll try and find another time for a chat soon, I promise" I knew Rox was gonna die, but man does it still hurt

spoilers: so Rox died via hanging, or was just hung up afterwards, the same way her brother died. and many other characters have experienced similar loss, enough that we can assume they all have. the ones confirmed are Enigma, Rox, Cross, Yaxi, and Rissi, assumed due to context clues are Corza and Rock. I’m probably forgetting a few but I’ll come back to this once I rewatch everything for this theory lol said very baseless and still-budding theory is that all the victims will die the same way their loved ones did. for example, Cross’ dad and Yaxi’s friend were shot, so if they end up being victims they’d be killed similarly. Rissi’s uncle(?) died of a heart attack, so she’d be killed by her heart stopping somehow. idk this idea just hit me, and there need to be more victims to provide further evidence, but it’s not impossible.

Holy shit. The body discovery was perfect. It revealed all the most likely characters to die first one by one, until the one I personally didn't expect out of all of them was the one to go. That was great. Cross knows exactly what he's doing here (if he's the one who made the decision for that to play out like that). This fangan is above and beyond, and knows exactly what us Danganronpa fans look for to determine who's the next to go. Excellent work, as always.

SPOILERS My sister is crying because she was so gay for Rox and now she’s gone. But seriously I thought she was gonna survive so that shocked me quite a bit.

Holy cheeseburgers, this series is amazing. The storyline, characters, and plot are so engaging! I'm excited to see character development through the story, and how actions of certain individuals will change the flow of the audience's perspectives. Kudos to the team for creating this masterpiece!

I felt the body discovery coming ever since Enigma woke up. These characters are super well written and it feels near impossible to predict the victims or attackers since nothing is blatantly obvious. In a real Danganronpa game it feels very predictable on who the “blackened” and victims are. In this it’s all balanced well. Also, rip to the character in this episode :(

First off I just wanna say I think this was played off in an amazing manor. I like how you didn’t go right into the killing and gave free time events on the side to show not only what relationships these people can have, but also to help us feel more connected and understand them all better without making the victim obvious. That was an amazing play, especially since in most kgs once one certain scene happens, it becomes obvious who the victim is. However in this case, you played off multiple different scenes where it could have been multiple people (Rock, Corza, Cross, Anon, Moraiteru, and Rox were who I thought would end up dead. Mostly Rock and Cross) Making it an ‘actual’ mystery instead of ‘yeah, this persons gonna die look at all those flags’. Love it. Secondly, the art. My GOODNESS the art is SOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOD! I give hearts to every artist, that goes for the cg, background, and sprite. Cause they’re all fabulous. And the voice actors. PLEASE. A wonderful cast and a wonderful group making the game. So many little references too, even to small games. I LOVE it. This fangan has honestly become so canon in my brain. It’s got tons of mysteries that have me begging for more and clinging to these characters. I can’t wait to see more bonding and see how the story progresses. Keep it up because Shattered Hope is the best! 🥺💖💖💕

This one is definitely the body discovery

SPOILERS: So wait, at the start, Rox talked about finding her brother hanged in suicide. And then, at the end, they found her... Man, that's dark.

I’m terrified about what might happen during this episode... EIDT: ENHY DID I HAVE TO BE RIGHT WHYWHYWHWYWHWHWYWHWYWHWYW

I hope they don’t kill off Cancel. With that being said, I hope they don’t kill Scarlet, or Corza, or Grisp, or Anon, or literally anyone

MAJOR SPOLERS: I hate the fact that the day before they were so happy with Enigma Corza Pocket and Risski and now they have found Rox dead *hanging just like her brother*

Aw Rissi & Twin are so damn cute together! I think Rissi may be crushing on him, but Twin see's her more as the little sister he once had, either way they're so adorable together. Also drunk Rissi was just too much, just when I thought she couldn't get any cuter too, I loved her drunk recollection of Pocket's reaction to Monokuma, and the way she repeats it in her drunken state. Speaking of Pocket, this needs to be said; the voice actors for each character is fantastic... but Pocket's Voice Actor Josh Portillo... this dude is on a whole new level, he absolutely owns this role, the dude is clearly giving 500%, his delivery is perfection, I loved that one line where Pocket is expecting a girl to come to save him, and Enigma points out that no one's coming, and Pocket's response "What's that Enigma? Oh right. I can FUCKING see that!" bloody hilarious. Makes me wish every line was voiced just so I can hear more of Pocket, same goes for all the characters and Voice Actors. Back to Pocket for a minute, it seemed like they were hinting at Pocket getting a girlfriend, I'm REALLY hoping Pocket & Cancel become a thing, I feel like below Cancel's rough exterior, she has a soft spot, and is genuinely a nice person, and I think she does have a slight crush on Pocket, I definitely want to see Cancel lighten up regardless, it's always a delight seeing her tough exterior melt away to reveal the nicer girl that lies beneath. Okay my biggest question is not who the killer is, but instead who knocked Enigma out cold and why? I mean why bother knocking him out if you don't intend on killing him? My only theory is that whoever knocked Enigma out cold, originally did intend on killing him but had a change of heart and spared him, and I think it was Rox, only because I could imagine her intending to kill him, but due to her own feelings for him, was unable to go through with it, and whoever killed Rox, I believe it could have been someone who witnessed Rox knock out Enigma, but the question becomes... who could have witnessed Rox incapacitate Enigma? The way Cross was looking at Rock makes me think that Rock will be the prime suspect, I think he was the first to discover Rox's body, but I rarely does the prime suspect at the start of the trial end up being guilty, right now I'm suspicious of Anon, Cross, Corza, Yaxi & Moraiteru. Okay I think that covers just about everything, just remember everybody "Be kind to dentists... They have fillings too..."

(Spoilers) Gosh diddly darn I knew it! She had too much character development for the first chapter FUU-

All the parallels to the original Danganronpa games are so TASTEFULLY done. Honestly, these characters are far MORE flushed out than any of the original games. Job well done I literally like all of the characters. I was gagged by this episode. I had my fingers crossed because i thought a certain best boy was about to met his end. This had me screaming and I don't think the first dangleronpa :) game accomplished such a reaction from me. Thank you so much for all of the efforts that were put into bringing this masterpiece to fruition. -A SiMPING LOYAL FOLLOWER

I think at this point im just glad that Rock and Corza were not the first victim. They both had so many death flags and i was scared for them since i love them both so much. I love the first victim too and wouldve rathered someone else die, but i wouldve been more sad if it were one of the other two

[SPOILERS] I knew Rox was gonna die after seeing all the attention that was given to her this episode, and the attraction Enigma had to her kinda sealed the deal, I can't wait to see how this turns out honestly!

I really thought they were like chapter 4 material, but I guess not.....

!!!Spoilers!!! I'm not gonna lie, Rox was probably my favorite character out of the bunch 😭😭 Really wish we could've seen more of her. Hopefully she's more involved with the story than we think 😔

BRO ISTG IF THIS TIME SOMEONE'S GONNA DIE THEN IM READY FKOSJCKSKCKSODKS I'm just glad they let us get to know about whoever is the Chapter 1 Character before they die, not like the official DANGANRONPA-

Potential Prediction: Hell's Door opens means that a literal door will open out to the outside frozen hell that is the Antarctic...making the first trial hella difficult as the body will be submerged in ice and maybe unavailable for autopsy throwing off the time of death, thereby also subverting the trope that the first case is the easiest.

SPOILERS Some predictions for trial 1! Rox would have had to die after the drinking game, which would’ve still been during the night. Before we go over anything else, we should first establish the *factors* at play here. 1. *A number of unspecified rooms are soundproof.* 2. *The girl’s bathroom can be listened in on from the Incinerator.* It is confirmed by Rule that the Dining Hall and Lounge also aren’t soundproof and can be listened in on. 3. *Grisp has a strong sense of smell.* This may allow him to smell the scent of wine on those who were drunk. 4. *Enigma, Rox, and Corza were (to some extent) drunk on the night of the murder.* Rock appeared to be sober, and both Rissi and Pocket did not ingest actual alcohol, but believed they were tipsy due to the “placebo effect”. 5. *Cancel was bedridden for an ambiguous amount of time.* Enigma, Rissi, and Pocket showed stronger symptoms of the motive poison as well. 6. *Rox spoke to Corza in private on the night of the murder.* 7. *Rox (and Corza) possessed additional information regarding the background of the killing game.* 8. *Corza was “punished” after the second Sacrifice Game.* What exactly the punishment entailed is unknown. 9. *Twin can perfectly replicate Rule’s voice.* This may naturally apply to other character as well. 10. *Enigma was knocked out on the night of the murder for an undisclosed amount of time.* The identity of the attacker and their reasoning is unknown; Enigma suspected Rock shortly after he came to. 11. *Anon, Rock, and Cross were the first participants to find the body.* This is somewhat obvious, but it is important to realize that these three did not go directly to the Dining Hall in the morning. 12. *The whereabouts of Cross in between the motive announcement and body discovery are unknown.* He seems to be avoiding the group after Rox called him out. 13. *The motive poison is unique, and linked to organ failure by Scarlet.* This detail is a bit extraneous, given that the antidote will now be passed around. Regardless, it’s important to note that this poison is unique, and may not actually be lethal (Rule’s word is questionable). 14. *Rox was found with bruises on her wrists and under her eyes.* This suggests that Rox got into a fight of some sort, meaning suicide is not a certainty. 15. *Rox’s hand were tied up, and she was also duct taped across her mouth.* Again, this suggests that Rox did not kill herself. 16. *Rox’s death mirrors that of her brother’s.* This may be a coincidence, but it also might be intentional on the part of the killer to mess with Enigma. With all of this in mind, let’s talk about possibilities! Firstly, the soundproof rooms in particular are quite important to this murder. Rox was found with duct tape over her mouth, which was placed almost surely to make sure the murder could be preformed undetected. This suggests that the murder was performed in a *non-soundproof room* as otherwise the duct tape would be relatively useless. It is also important to note Rox’s interactions with any potential killers up until this point. Her conversation with Corza may be indicative of possible collusion with him. Perhaps the two planned to kill someone? Maybe they planned to stage Rox’s death? What if they teamed up to knock out Enigma? It’s very much unclear, but it is a possibility, and may also be why Corza came with Rox to play the drinking game with Enigma. Cross is certainly an option, but it feels too obvious for him to be the killer, as the other participants will surely suspect him. Anon talked about killing but he is underdeveloped, and unlikely to die quite yet. Moraiteru and Yaxi are unstable, but once again, I find it unlikely for them to die quite yet. Rock may also be a potential killer, as he serves as a great way to put Enigma under more mental turmoil after the friend he trusted the most and later grew to distrust could end up being the murderer of his partner-in-crime. This leads into my next point... *Rock is my personal pick for Rox’s killer.* In addition to the potential impact this development would have on Enigma, it also ties into other factors of this case. The soundproof rooms will likely be a big part of this case, and this includes the girl’s bathroom as well. I’ve waxed poetically about this theory before but *what if someone were to overhear another important person to the case say “Rock’s” but mistake it for “Rox”.* The creators have stated that the codenames are important to the plot, and while I’m sure there’s another reason for this, I’m still quite certain this is part of that. The two have VERY similar codenames, and both characters are even placed next to each other in the intro (which may be intentionally aiming to remind of the viewer of this potential plot twist in the future???). Anyway, these are my takeaways from today’s chapter. I’d like to thank the Shattered Hope team for giving us this amazing project! Today’s chapter was my favorite to date, and this entire batch was superbly done! Excited to see the conclusion to this chapter!

I actually cried at the end of this lol good job Shattered Hope Studio's. Y'alls writing is top tier 🥲

This series keeps getting better and better the characters are all so good

🚨 SPOILER 🚨 Idk for y’all, but I think Rock is the culprit. I think Rox probably tried to kill Enigma, but Rock saw her and attacked her in order to protect him. However, he had never planned to kill her in the process and, fearing what the others might think, he decided to tie her up and hang her. That would make sense because when Enigma woke up, Rock was there and there was no body since he had moved it. Plus, if I’m not wrong, Rock was the only one sober enough to realize that Enigma was in danger.

Spoilers below! Rox: Dies Everyone: Screaming/Crying The outro music: 💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺

*Deep breath* Spoilers. I’m not gonna spoil a ton as requested of the creators but I gotta talk about at least a little bit of it. Okay. Starting off with some lighthearted stuff. The drinking scene was freaking amazing. I loved that so much, Drunk Rissi was freaking adorable and just made me laugh, as well as everyone else. Great interaction. Rissi quoting and making fun of Pocket was so good. Slowly getting more information about each of the characters, which is nice, love me some good backstories. God damn Moraiteru continues to freak me the hell out. When she suddenly turns serious and the music just stops with no warning, damn. Well done. I wouldn’t have expected this type of motive, or for it to resolve something that seemed so mysterious at first. I thought it would have lasted longer. But the moment the mysterious element was gone...i knew. I’m not gonna say anything about the ending still, despite saying spoilers. I want to obey the rules set by the creators. All I will say on it...is that it was a great betrayal of expectations due to the roles some might have assumed of the characters. Also no theory talk from me this time, no spoilers. But I do have some cooking in my head. Current Best Girl: Still Rissi!!!!! Drunk Rissi made her tens times more cute and lovable on my opinion!

SPOILERS! *when everybody is looking for a body* Me: okay, Yaxi's alige, Rissi's fine, Moraiteru and Pocket are here, yeah Cancel is doing okay, and Corza too... I think everybody who matters is alive! Me five seconds later: I FORGOT ABOUT ROX NOOOOO

That scene when they drink is fantastic, they're all so cute when they smile AND BAM First victim 😩😢

I feel like the little alcohol bit was only voice acted to let Rissi's actress have fun

My opinion on the killer: I think it was either Moraiteru/Pocket, they are very unstable, and the current situation with the poison might have driven them completely over the edge. Moraiteru wasn't scared during the announcement, she was rather annoyed. My second guess is Rock, though I feel kind of bad for accusing him, he was so nice to everyone. But actually, this is exactly why! Every time Enigma felt bad or was in trouble, Rock was always nearby. It certainly is suspicious. And my third guess is Rox herself. She died the same way her brother did, but she didn't tell anyone but Enigma about it. It might have been a side effect of the poison that she wanted to kill herself, or she wanted to save everyone by committing a "murder". Can't wait to see the real answer!!! The series is amazing!!!

That was a great batch of episodes. Everytime I think you guys can't out do yourselves, you still out do yourselves. Next batch is going to be a wild ride of emotions.

What is this! Your just releasing episode after episode. This is great

(Not a spoiler, really just a theory) Of course Corza doesn't feel like his ultimate makes sense, he's the ultimate KILLING game designer. He worked with monkuma to make the most personally interactive killing game (by putting himself in it like Junko but he also asked to get his memories wiped to add to the overall despair. When Rule took over and Corza got his punishment, he saw himself agreeing to get his memory wiped, though he probably didn't get the full context yet. Also notice how his ultimate doesn't specifically says he's a VIDEOgame designer...

Spoilers: I knew as soon as Enigma said his head wasn't hurting anymore that someone was dead. The one's I expected to be dead were Corza, Cross, or Rox so my prediction was correct. Even worse, when she talked about her brother being hanged, it was complete foreshadowing. Edit: Also, I've never been creeped out by the body discoveries in the main series DR games, but I found this one legitimately disturbing. The combination of the creepy music, Rox's body, and Engima's screams was very unsettling. Well done!

SPOILERS Who else keeps on watching the BDA until they feel nothing at the sight of a loved character dying.

My emotion changed like a light switch. Motive: Hell ya somone is gonna kill somone I bet. Having a fun time in the group: Awwwww now I don't want them to die. Body had been found: (I like them) me theories who's the murder.

to the person who died, . . . . . . . . . WE WERE ROOTING FOR YOU WE WERE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU HOW DARE YOU 😭😭

Drunk Rissi! Nothing else happened!

Speculation and Spoilers So Rox is dead. She was found with her hands tied behind her back, bruises on her arm (I do not remember it she had them before hand), gagged with what appears to be duct tape and hanged in room 1-B. She was last seen alive leaving the drinking party. Now lets state some facts. We can say that the drinking party began around 10PM because we can see that is already night time (Also I want to point out one inconsistency, night time is stated to begin at 10PM and end at 8AM on rule 7 in the prologue 36:19 but, we see the day time announcement at 7AM 38:44) in which Corza, Rox, Enigma, Rock and Rissi participated then Pocket joined. Rock served the drinks to everyone. Enigma was left alone after the drinking party ends. Rock found a collapsed Enigma. Enigma started questioning everyone he could find still in night time. Rox's body was found just after 7AM by Cross, Anon and Rock. Now my thoughts. I belive Rox was killed between 12AM and 3AM my points for this is the duration of the drinking party, which could have ended at around 12AM and I do not believe she was killed just before 7AM. I also think she was murdered while Enigma was unconscious and that the killer was the one who attacked Enigma or Rox attacked him. My three main suspects are Rock, Corza and Pocket in that order. Before explaining why let me first list the ones I think are cleared for this murder. Cancel: She was one of the most affected by the poison. Scarlet: Was taking care of everyone thus she doesn't have time to murder Rox. Moraiteru: Last time we see her, she went into her room, I don't think she came out of there because she was told about Enigma's attack on the dining room meeting alongside Cancel. Grisp: He went back to the dorms as Pocket stated during the drinking party. Rissi: She appeared to be "drunk" (more on that later) and she couldn't even talk properly. Cross: I think he stayed in his room, because of Pocket comment in the dining room meeting, no one backed him up of seeing Cross leaving during the night. The only ones who knew that Enigma was still in the dining room where Corza, Rox, Pocket, Rock and Rissi. Room 1-B is outside of the dining room on the right as shown in the map. The rooms are soundproof as stated by Rule with the exception of the Incinerator room and the girls restroom that we know. Now for my suspects: Rock: He was the one serving the drinks so he could have intentionally served Rissi alcohol to make Corza take her to her room after the drinking party, leaving Rox, Enigma and himself, but then Pocket appeared so he has to take care of him as well. After the party ends and making sure Pocket, Corza and Rissi where back in the dorms, he could have attacked Rox, tied her and leave her in room 1-B. Then went an knock out Enigma to stop him from roaming into room 1-B (he even says to Enigma to go back together), kill Rox and then go and wake up Enigma and making sure he doesn't enter room 1-B. Personally I found him as someone who can kill when cornered because of his atempt to steal the treasure in his backstory. Corza: He could be forced to kill Rox as his punishment for abstaining to participate in the sacrifice game. Silencing the one who knows something about Monokuma and silencing him after his execution for knowing Rule. His punishment could also be executed alongside or instead of the culprit. Pocket: He looks like someone who can crack easily under pressure and he knew about Enigma still being in the dining room which could be very inconvinient for the killer if Enigma happens to notice the murder after leaving the dinning room. As for Rox's murder, I think the killer either lure her into room 1-B, or attacked her on a similar way as Enigma, was tied up, questioned about what she knows (this is were the bruises come into play as marks of torture but I don't remember if its stated she had those before) about Monokuma, gagged up so the killer doesn't hear her scream and suffocate, and hanged. This taking quite some time makes me think the culprit attacked Enigma beforehand because he could be a potential witness if he is leaving the dining room during the murder. Enigma going to question everyone he sees makes me think he didn't stop to look into rooms 1-A and 1-B and instead went directly to the dorms where most would be. I would like to read your thoughts and theories on this.

No one: The credits after enigmas blood curling cream: RING AROUND THE ROSIE POCKETS FULL OF POISIES 🎶

[SPOLIERS] rox raised so many death flags, the moment i read "no headache this time" i knew she was a goner. f for one of my favourite characters

I can't believe it's been almost an entire year... Time goes by fast. I still remember my shocked expression when I saw that part happen in this episode. Dang

(slight events spoiler!!) killer theory: I don’t know why but I feel like Yaxi did this kill. She would be able to successfully know how to knock Enigma out, feeling confident enough to risk the idea of Enigma potentially seeing them. And maybe something to do with relevance to the thin walls around. Overall, I dunno, it seems like something unexpected of Yaxi. But maybe she’d do it so everyone else didn’t automatically die? Or a less moral reason of wanting to escape for some reason??

SPOILERS - - - - - - Omfg I just realised Rox died the same way as her brother, NOW I'M SAD

MAJOR SPOILERS! Bro I'm so sad. I mean I sort of predicted it. I was stuck between Corza being the first victim because he knows too much, Rock because he trusts others too much and finally the right prediction Rox because she questions others too much and was one of the most out there characters. Coincidentally these 3 are my favorites along with pocket so I was on edge this ep. I'm too sad to be proud of myself that one of my guesses were right😭 Edit:holy shit I just realized that her death was foreshadowed because of her story about her brother earlier. She shared that he hanged himself and now she's got hanged herself by someone. I'm crying

The screams were honestly really darn good, sent chills down my spine. Awesome job on the voice acting!

Rest in peace, ch1 victim. your loss is forever ingraved in our hearts...

I almost cried for the dead person ;-; good job guys

Thank you so much shattered hope studios! I love this fanronpa so much, the actors, characters, designs, game platorm, musics etc so much! I'm so glad this one is still on going. -Spoilers: . okay!! A lot of characters had major death flags and I'm so sad it was Rox who died first. It was coming tho. She already knew monokuma, was pretty much the closest girl to Enigma and already had a somewhat backstory played. >Her dying somewhat like her brothers makes me feel very uneasy. Did she tell the story to someone else? Was it confidential, not sure but I don't think so. She didn't commit suicide for sure due to her bruises, her being tied, taped etc. >The lighting was blue in the crime frame but was it paint on her arms?? Something was blue > Cross and Anon are looking at Rock, I know he's crying but maybe there's more to it. Was he the first one to find the body? Why didn't these 3 go directly to the cafeteria, what happened. Maybe he was talking to cross and Anon and explaining the Enigma situation but not sure. He 100% is involved with the crime tho, I don't think he's the culprit. The placebo effect is very weird and maybe he actually did give strong alcohol to Rissi. >Grips may help in this with his strong smell but bad taste >Tape? Was she killed in a non-soundproof room? >Rox has a private discussion with corza. I really don't want him to be the culprit tho since already one who knew a lot died and he really seems to be a sidekick to Enigma this time. I don't think it's him but I'd go for a man culprit. >Cancel is out of the question with her pain and lack of info; Scarlet seemed really busy I don't think she had time to plan anything; Rissi is out of the question for now; Yaxi and mora are weird but I don't get why would they have something against rox. >Twin and his voice replicating talent >Cross would look to obvious so no. He seemed scared but he wouldn't kill Rox when everyone already suspects him. He was in deep thinking too so I don't think it's him >Rock and pocket (and Rissi??) were sober right? >Okay but the party was wholesome. Their laugh made my heart go soft. Anyway it's pretty long, I'll maybe add more next time I come here. It's a bit of what we have for now and a mix from what I read. I'm doing this for myself in case I forget lol and you guys too if you want

Pain levels exceeding 100% Time to lie down and cry Truly, my hopes have been shattered

I am really shocked. It was not a personal fav of mine, but got me off guard

In literal tears 😭 Will never be able to praise how fantastic this series is.

I bet body discovery announcement will be the cliffhanger Edit:brb crying

Spoilers I'm seriously crying on the inside and outside right now. WHHYYY!!!!!!...... Welcome to Danganronpa, where Ships are regularly sinked.

⚠☡⚠☡ATTENTION☡⚠☡⚠☡ Twitter user @t_squiddy has started a 'silent' hate campaign against fanganronpas through Discord. If you see dark rumors behind your favorite fanganronpas or their teams, DON'T BELIEVE IN THEM. This person (and their friends) is the one who is inventing them out of sheer malice. This fanganronpa is great. All fanganronpas are great, so please don't stop supporting them!!!

Oh boy there comes the spoiler . . . Me every time Rox came in the past episodes : She's not dead!.....yet... Me now: There it is boys! We called it!

Spoiler alert!!!!!: That body discovery was absolutely terrifying, I wasn’t expecting rox to die this early, and rock’s scream made it all the more scary.

BIG SPOILERS, DON'T CONTINUE WITHOUT COMPLETING THE EPISODE: Oh boy, today was a good amount to unpack. The Coffee scene was adorable, I'm pretty sure it made at least one Enigma x Rox shipper, and hey, it gave some insight into Rox's past, her brother and his death(great foreshadowing), and the specifics about that. The first motive was a great way to explain the cast's poor health and honestly, that speech from Rule genuinely made me smile, even though he was talking about a killing game.....anyways. Enigma's breakdown, Scarlet helping in analyzing the poison, but not getting many results, and Rissi collapsing from the poison was really showing how sad and helpless the characters are right now. I kinda wish we could see Cancel being sick too. Moraiteru being all creepy with her casting suspicion on Yaxi is gonna be interesting, as honestly, even though Yaxi's playing a big part in Rissi's development and giving some of her backstory at the same time, I doubt I can trust either side, because even though Moraiteru hasn't done anything good, she hasn't been too suspicious either. Even though she again helped Rissi with the help of Twin, she might very much be this Chapter's blackened, and that'll have some effect on Rissi's development if it were true, but I'll talk about the body discovery a bit later. Now, speaking of Rissi, her development is going pretty well, and I'm pretty sure she might be one of my favorites if she survives for a fairly decent time. The drinking scene was probably my favorite. Rissi feeling drunk because of The Placebo Effect, Pocket being Pocket, Rock being Rock, and Rox just interacting more and us getting to learn about these characters more. A great scene. That friendship and enjoyment doesn't last for long though, after Enigma is attacked by someone. This, again, brings conflict between the cast. Enigma is going to find the identity of the attacker, even though he found basically nothing. I would love to see how this plot point becomes a clue in the Trial. And yes, at last, the Body Discovery. I'll be blunt. I shouted "FFFFUUUUUUUUUUCK!" in a high-pitched voice when I saw Rox hanged, I was not expecting it, even if I thought that she won't survive deep down. Judging by the expressions on Anon and Cross' faces, Rock will definitely be considered the prime suspect. That, is also good. One of the first characters who you really start to learn about ends up being the prime suspect in the first case, a character who Enigma already considers suspicious as he was the one who saw him on the ground, fainted, so he probably knocked him out. Now, the idea of Rox committing suicide seemed likely with the cause of death between her and her brother, but honestly, it's very unlikely. So yeah, overall, another great episode, probably my favorite one.

Spoiler: Rox only died because she had a severe lack of ahoge. Moral of the story: dont get atached to anyone without an ahoge, they gonna die, a good example is sora from super dang another 2 survived not cuz she was a protag but cuz she had an ahoge. Even fangans have to follow the rules so yes if ur fav has an ahoge you can be a little calmer.

SPOILERS// .. Nooooo! D: Poor girl has bruises on her arms and was probably gagged to muffle (?) any screams. Damn, I really didn't want her to die this early.

I think it's fair to say that every DR fan is a bit of a masochist since we love this franchise yet we keep wanting more stories where chars we love are getting tortured like this. So yeah even though seeing beloved chars die is horrible, I still keeping coming back for more because I want to see the mysteries get solved and hoping my favs survive. I am honestly having a hard time picking a fav from this series because each char has something I like about them, even the antagonistic chars.

Before I say my thoughts of the chapter, I just want to point out the similarities between Rissi and Chihiro. That is all. Okay, moving onto my thoughts, so be aware that there are spoilers. So, we called it. Rox being first to die. In this thought vomit, I'm gonna see if I can guess who I think the blackened is, and discuss certain characters as to why I think they would/wouldn't be the blackened. 1.) Cross. Given the previous conflict between the two, I'd be willing to bet it isn't him. A red herring, someone to pin it on, like Makoto for the first trial of THH. 2.) Enigma. I'd mostly be willing to say it isn't him, mainly due to the screams at the end not sounding like Corza. However, it is important to note how she died (or was found, at least): Hanging. Sound familiar? Of course, this can't be a suicide because her hands are tied and she had duct tape over her face, so yeah. 3.) Corza. I'd be willing to bet that he has something to do with it. Rox did ask to talk to Corza before everyone split off to find Rissi and Twin. I would wager to guess they discussed having someone be killed to protect everyone else, probably Rox sacrificing herself. I would compare it to Ryoma's thing in v3, volunteering himself to get someone out of the killing game. It's also how one of the chapters go in my personal fangan project, so it's on my mind. Additionally, I don't think I heard Corza scream at the end there, so I have a high suspicion on him at the moment. Now, I know I didn't discuss any of the other 10 people it could have been, so please add your contributions for them (or the three I talked about) in the replies so I can discuss this with someone I know has an understanding ^•^
